Gatsby Build Fail: Invariant Violation with GraphQL Type

Description

Gatsby build suddenly fails (seemed to begin failing over night on webhook deployments).

Environment

Gatsby version: 1.9.134 Node.js version: 6.9.4 Operating System: OSX 10.12.6

File contents (if changed):

gatsby-config.js:

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    `gatsby-plugin-react-helmet`,
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-source-contentful`,
      options: {
        spaceId: `redacted`,
        accessToken: `redacted`
      }
    },
    `gatsby-transformer-remark`,
    `gatsby-plugin-glamor`,
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-typography`,
      options: {
        pathToConfigModule: `src/utils/typography`
      }
    }
  ]
};

}

gatsby-node.js:

const Promise = require(`bluebird`);
const path = require(`path`);
const slash = require(`slash`);

exports.createPages = ({ graphql, boundActionCreators }) => {
  const { createPage } = boundActionCreators;
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    graphql(`
      {
        allContentfulPost {
          edges {
            node {
              slug
            }
          }
        }
      }
    `).then(result => {
      if (result.errors) {
        reject(result.errors);
      }

      // Create Product pages
      const productTemplate = path.resolve(`./src/templates/post-page.js`);
      // We want to create a detailed page for each
      // product node. We'll just use the Contentful id for the slug.
      result.data.allContentfulPost.edges.map(({ edge }) => {
        createPage({
          // Each page is required to have a `path` as well
          // as a template component. The `context` is
          // optional but is often necessary so the template
          // can query data specific to each page.
          path: `/${edge.node.slug}/`,
          component: slash(productTemplate),
          context: {
            slug: edge.node.slug
          }
        });
      });
    });
    resolve();
  });
};

gatsby-browser.js: No change gatsby-ssr.js: No change

Actual result

10:20:37 AM: success source and transform nodes — 0.372 s
10:20:37 AM: error Encountered an error trying to infer a GraphQL type for: "createdEntries___NODE". There is no corresponding node with the id field matching: "null"

Expected behavior

It should be building.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new gatsby project with gatsby new project-folder

2. Replace the above files with their respective contents

3. gatsby develop

I have tried removing all GraphQL related queries and am still running into the the issue. Any help/ideas is greatly appreciated! …

@mpaarating I think I’ve seen an error like that before from having corrupt data on Contentful, like if you have an association that’s been deleted. Might this be the cause?

FWIW, we started getting this error when we had an asset with the same ID as an entry ID.
